For several years I have used the following code to disable/enable commandbar controls, but since updating to Excel 2016 for Mac it no longer works:
Code:
' Controls the enabling/disabling of all controls with the specified Id.
Private Sub EnableControl(pintCtrlId As Integer, pbooEnable As Boolean)
        Dim pbarCmdBar As CommandBar
        Dim pctlCmdBarCtrl As CommandBarControl

        ' Error handler needed.
        On Error Resume Next
        ' Finds every command bar control with the specified Id and enables/disables it according to the setting of pbooEnabled.
        For Each pbarCmdBar In Application.CommandBars
                Set pctlCmdBarCtrl = pbarCmdBar.FindControl(Id:=pintCtrlId, recursive:=True)
                If Not pctlCmdBarCtrl Is Nothing Then
                        pctlCmdBarCtrl.Enabled = pbooEnable
                End If
        Next pbarCmdBar
        On Error GoTo 0
        ' Destroys object reference.
        Set pctlCmdBarCtrl = Nothing

End Sub


The call to above procedure is:
Code:
EnableControl mconCtrlID_PasteSpecial, False


Does anyone know why this no longer works?
